Release Blitz - Guarding Eden - Cameo Renae

***The Midway Novels are spin-offs of
the Hidden Wings Series, but each book can be read as a standalone.***

Tucked away at an
upscale, private boarding school in Brindle Hollow, Washington,
seventeen-year-old Eden East comes face to face with a hideous creature on her
walk back to her dorm. Shaken to her core, she's left questioning the world
around her, and soon finds herself entering a friendship with a hot, new
student named Alexander.

Little does she
know, Alex is a Guardian Angel, sent from Midway to protect her from those
dangerous creatures—known as Darkling—lurking in the forest outside Brindle
Hall. It isn’t long before Alex learns this is no ordinary assignment. Eden’s
existence holds a secret; something hidden from even herself.

Eden is thrust into
a world where Fallen angels and creatures of the Underworld will stop at
nothing to catch her. With Alex at her side and a little help from some of his
old friends, they form a formidable front against the enemy.

Escape into a wonderful new world! Or at least it is a new
world to me. Guarding Eden can be read as a standalone as I had never heard of
the Midway Series until I read this book. It is obvious there are some other
books featuring other characters, but it did not matter if I read them or not
to fully enjoy this book. This book has a bit of mystery, action, and romance.
I really enjoyed this book.

The plot of this book is simple. A guardian angel is sent to
watch over a mortal after an incident occurs that causes the mortal to be in
danger. What neither the guardian nor the mortal know is that there is much
more to this assignment than either could imagine. This plot was done
wonderfully. I have not read any angel books in a while, so this was a nice
reintroduction into the genre.

Eden is a wonderful character. She is quite strong willed
even though she comes off as shy and timid. I love her personality and how she
cares so much for those around her. I think that is an important aspect to her
character. Alex is a great character as well. He is a guardian angel who is
known for being able to stick to the assignment and then move on without a
thought. I think he had some developing to do in this story. I liked his
protectiveness and caring ways as well.

These two characters are both undeniably drawn to each
other, but neither knows why. It is forbidden, yet they both want to taste that
fruit. Eden is especially confused as she is mortal and does not know about
angels. This leads to some sexual tension between the characters as they both
try and fight their desires. What makes it even better is that because of Alex’s
role, he has to stay close to her which means the tension just continues to
build.

I liked the way the author wrote this story. I loved the
dual point of view between characters. Readers get to better understand the
angel world, while also getting to experience what the mortal being thrown into
this new world is going through. I think it adds a layer needed in the book.
The pace of the book is good as well. The only complaint I had about the book
was some of the characters reactions were a bit unrealistic for me personally,
but it was not enough to affect my enjoyment of the book.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. It makes me want to go
back and read the other books in the series to see where these other characters
have been. I would recommend this book to others who like books in this genre.
I think that you should give this book a try, especially if you like angel
books. Great job!
